Movie: Hero (Yin Xiong). Cast: Tony Leung, Maggie Cheung, Jet Lee, Zhang Zi Yi, Donny Yuen.Location: The attack on the calligraphy chool was filmed at Dangjin Mountain in Akesai, near old Dunhuang City, in northwest China, toward Mongolia. The amazing, wind-blasted rock formations, called 'yadan' are here too.
The sword fight above the lake is at Jiu Zhai Gou ('Nine Villages Valley', read more). The lake itself is Jian ZhuHai ('Cold bamboo Sea').

Just to the south, where two valleys merge into Shuzheng Gully, you can see the waterfall, at which Broken Sword and Flying Snow meet in the 'green' sequence. It's the 98-feet-high Nuorilang Falls ('nuorilang' is "magnificent and splendid" in the Tibetan language).
--> 
More scenes filmed at the yellow grassy marshland near another lake, Chang Hai (Long Sea).
The elegaic fight between Flying Snow (Maggie Cheung) and Moon (Zhang Ziyi) among fluttering autumnal leaves, is an ancient oak grove in Inner Mongolia. Timing was everything: an employee, stationed out in Mongolia, called the director the moment the leaves turned a perfect shade of gold.

yea I did the research ..
back in time when we worked for Fanstasia. Remember?
I still have the files and I thought it would be such a waste to keep it in a box. Especially for that Jiu Zhai Gou.
